Screenshots of the UI changes on the Mac - in my opinion it is now just wasting a lot of screen estate for zero benefit.

On non-Macs they're adding an extra usability issue by hiding the top menu bar. I've gove back to 2.7.4 for now - fortunately I had my configuration in git.

Up to 2.7.4:

2.8.4:

Vor ein paar Tagen gabs hier ein Post zu Deutschlandwochen im Lidl in Italien, wo einer aus Schweden und ich mich ueber das Layout gewundert haben.

Jetzt sind auch hier Deutschlandwochen - und anscheinend wurde generell das Packungslayout geaendert - frueher war das alles "Alpenfest", jetzt "taste of deutschland".

Einige Produkte haben sich auch geaendert - z.b. waren die Apfel/Kirsch/Pflaumenkuchen frueher grosse runde Kuchen, jetzt sinds mehrere Teile.

Und Maultaschen sind wieder nicht dabei.

This is OpenDalle with img2img to make an existing picture into a futuristic city.

I took this picture at work a while ago, and it reminded me of cities with brutalist architecture we see in movies now and then, so I tried to get it made into one:

Other interesting attempts:

Forcing it to stay closer to the source made things look more like a highschool cardboard model:

I've finally found a bag which nicely fits almost everything I want to carry every day, and alos makes everything easily accessible - it is about the same size as what I used to carry, but now I no longer need to dump everything out to find what I neede, even with some lose parts still in there.

I recently had to add a Mac to my zoo of hardware I'm trying to do productive work on - which prompted me to clean up and document my environment variable importer, which had grown to platform specific functions with lots of code duplication.

On both Windows and MacOS I have properly configured shells with all relevant variables - so it makes sense to query them, instead of duplicating the logic how they create that configuration into Emacs.

On Linux that'd have worked too, but I also have the relevant variables in the systemd user session, and querying that is a tiny bit faster than launching a shell.

I was thinking about that when I was dropping my 6 year old off at some hobbies earlier - it's pretty much expected to have learned how to ride a bicycle before starting school, and it massively expands the area you can go to by yourself. When she went to school by bicycle she can easily make a detour via a shop to spend some pocket money before coming home, while by foot that'd be rather time consuming.

Quite a lot of friends from outside of Europe either can't ride a bicycle, or were learning it as adult after moving here, though.

edit: the high number of replies mentioning "swimming" made me realize that I had that filed as a basic skill pretty much everybody has - probably due to swimming lessons being a mandatory part of school education here.

I'm currently in the process of taking over as maintainer for the emacs-keybindings addon for Firefox.

I've just published the first update in years, with changes including:

• tested on Windows and Linux now
• some functionality is now configurable: debug logging, custom new tab page, experimental features, modifier-less high level bindings
• all keybindings are listed in the options settings page
• M- keybindings are now also reachable via ESC
• M-< and M-> was added for scrolling to top/bottom
• introducing prefix key, currently only used for opening/closing of windows (C-u C-x C-f or C-u C-k)
• search is introduced as experimental feature - currently it just highlights all matches
• the extension now registers as browser action in preparation for additional features

Unfortunately a lot of things that used to work with the old XUL plugins few years back just don't work with the new APIs - and Firefox developers have been sitting on relevant bugs for 8 years or more without anything happening now - so this is probably close to the best we can have for now. In combination with setting editing keybindings either via Gnome settings or AHK it makes browsing almost bearable again.

Die Kinder waren vorher im Wald und haben Heidelbeeren mitgebracht. Daher musste ich jetzt ungeplant schnell einen Kuchen machen.

Falls ihr das nachbauen wollt sollten eure Kinder so 250-300g Beeren aus dem Wald holen.

Boden: Normaler Muerbteig (200g Mehl, 75g Puderzucker, 75g Butter, 1TL Backpulver, 1 Ei)

Fuellung: 250g Quark, 50g Puderzucker, 2 Eier

Fuellung aufschlagen, ggf. etwas Vanillezucker dazu. Ich hatte nur 200g Quark, aber dafuer noch etwa 50g Vanillesosse uebrig, das tuts dann auch.

Beeren unterheben, Fuellung auf den ausgerollten und an den Seiten hochgezogenen Teig geben, im vorgeheizten Backofen bei 180 Grad etwa 45 Minuten backen. Aus der Form nehmen und auf einem Gitter abkuehlen lassen.

On the off chance somebody here is familiar with this API: I've spent some time trying to make using browsers somewhat bearable, and tried - with limited success - to re-implement search using find.find, with the search input in a HTML dialog.

The problem with this approach is that the search query itself is treated as part of the results:

So far I haven't seen a way to have that excluded. Does anybody have ideas outside of "throw this away and reimplement with JavaScript"?

The code is here

... mit Nudeln, Krautsalat und Ketchup.

Unklar ob das gegen Regeln 1, 2 und 3 verstoesst.
